I just get told to call my S1, or something to that effect. Something I&#39;m more willing to accept is that I was also promised that the Army would pay off my student loan debt. My contract stipulates that these will not be paid until February of 2020, but I have been havi g to pay on my loans until then and now they&#39;re almost paid off. 2020-02-29T13:48:03-05:00 SPC(P) Brandon Jenkins 5613924

Maybe even your Top.

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>They will only pay off the amount of loans still present. So if you got 50k student loan repayment and you only owe 20k in student loans then they will tax the amount they pay on the loans as income and anything over that amount left after pay off you don’t get. Crappy isn’t it? Also crappy student loan repayment bonuses are treated like income since you are essentially paying the government your bonus.

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>SPC did you go online in my pay and complete the loan repayment form with all your student loan accounts that needs to be completed to get the army to actually pay your student loan debt? If not then that might be part of the hold up.

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>There is no reenlistment incentive that includes student loan repayment. That&#39;s probably why people are confused as to who is responsible for handling it, because you&#39;re not telling them the correct information.<br /><br />What exactly happened, what did you do, when did you do it, and who (specifically who - rank and job title) told you what?
